Hello again,
 
   I have been able to test more items with system 4.1.
   FKEY manager v2.5 seems to corrupt your system file sometimes. If you bring
it up, click on the Fkeys installed and make sure the sizes shown are reasonable
as I saw some items with trashed sizes and subsequent usage of these items
crashed the Mac.  Also, its pull-down menu is incompatible with the new 
'continue' arrows at the top and bottom of the menu, sometimes lopping off an
items name.
   MS fortran v2.2 works fine and applications it develops work fine.
   I haven't found a game that doesn't work with the new stuff. (yet!)
   I have not had a problem with Macterminal.  Others have, I wonder why?
   The Tangent tech keyboard works if Easy access is removed.
   Digital link, a program to connect my Mac to my Amiga works fine.
   
I will keep you posted as to others....
 
 
Phil Hunt
